If you want to check out my previous posts on the nominees, just click their name above. I decided this year, to focus on a nude scene from nominee Sebastian Stan that I don't think I featured before. I've been lusting after Stan ever since first seeing him on screen in The Covenant. (HERE:)
My crush turned to becoming a huge fan and respecting Stan's work after watching him in the one and only season of Political Animals. I loved the Sigourney Weaver led drama, and Stan was great as her gay son. As much as I love Stan, I could not bring myself to watch The Apprentice. I'm sure he's great, but I have ZERO interest in seeing anything related to the hateful, racist asshole, currently occupying the White House.
For this piece, I chose Stan's gymnastic sex scene from the 2015 sports comedy The Bronze. Actress and writer Melissa Raunch as admitted most of her parts in the scene were done by a body double who was a Cirque du Soleil dancer. Although I'm sure Stan used a body double for some of this scene, (I'd love to know his body doubles name...) Raunch states Stan actually did much of what we saw on screen.
'We wrote it as ‘the most crazy epic gymnastic sex scene ever. It really was a porno script, essentially. But Sebastian was so fantastic and he went for so much of it. He could have just said, ‘Have my body double do it,’ and instead he came to set in his robe and said, ‘Okay, let’s do this.’
Melissa Raunch
'Every time I slammed into her, I was like, ‘Oh my God, are you okay?’ And she was like, ‘Just go for it!'
